Subjective Rating: 9/10 (One of my favorites, 4/4 5/4). Shoestring budget and slightly grating host be damned, this is the best non-fiction show I've ever seen. It's such a simple and great idea - entertaining people, hanging out and having fun. Also, board games. I love board games. If you don't love board games, then... you probably haven't watched Tabletop. This show can drastically change the way you use your free time and disposable income. There's an entire blog out there dedicated to sharing stories of how people's lives were changed by watching Tabletop.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.6/4 2.7/4 (Good)
